CHOOSING RIGHTEOUSNESS

Father, praise your holy name for another blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for your forgiveness and the gift of life.

Father, as many have awakened and are beginning their morning journey, they smile because they are filled with love, peace, and joy within. They realize that there is a purpose for all things, situations, and experiences. Therefore, they cling closer to you and remain in continual prayer that they put you first and walk the path that you have established for them.

Father, help all to remain strong in their faith, knowing that all blessings come from you through your Son, Jesus Christ. Help them to choose righteousness even when they are outnumbered by that which is evil and/or contrary to your holy word.

“For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.” Matthew 6:31-33.

AIMING TO CONTINOUSLY, PLEASE GOD

Father, praise your holy name for another blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for your unconditional love.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they pause to give you all the glory for another blessed day in Christ that was not promised. Despite their shortcomings, your love for them remains constant.

When they were challenged beyond measure, you allowed them to resist temptation and hold on to your unchanging hands during both the good and the bad.

When they were constantly overwhelmed with feelings of hatred and jealousy from those whom they loved and thought loved them as well, they realized that your love for them, through your Son, Jesus Christ, is the only love that is permanent without stipulations.

Father, help all to realize that you know and see all things; therefore, keep living life aiming to please you. Help them to leave all worries and concerns with you through your Son, Jesus Christ, as they follow the path that you have established for them.

“So we make it our goal to please him, whether we are at home in the body or away from it. For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each of us may receive what is due us for the things done while in the body, whether good or bad. Since, then, we know what it is to fear the Lord, we try to persuade others. What we are is plain to God, and I hope it is also plain to your conscience.”
2 Corinthians 5:9–11
